✦ Synopsis

In usual aerodynamic bulk formulas, the drag coefficient C,, has been best estimated in the 5 to 16 m s-l range of mean wind velocity; a value of 1.3 x 10m3 is often considered for operational use. However, in the 0 to 5 m s-l range of mean wind velocity, corresponding to meteorological conditions of very light wind, experimental results have not resulted in any convincing agreement between various authors (
